Union locals representing 70,000 Stop & Shop supermarket workers said Tuesday that they’re filing charges with the National Labor Relations Board against the company.

When facing union activity or a union campaign it is very important to "know your people"

Do you know who would support you or the lengths they would go through to be your voices on the floor that ultimately educate fellow employees on why they should vote NO for a union?

We have many programs to help you stay union free. In this article I share specific examples of how important communication is and the outcomes of some difficult campaigns where key internal leaders made a huge difference.

The AFL/CIO is showing solidarity with the police unions. When I was a National Strike Director I often wondered where was the police union’s solidarity to us. I questioned their solidarity because they were union and had a job to do. Their job included controlling the peace. Sometimes they went too far, kicking over burn barrels, tear gassing peaceful strikers, making arrests and using riot teams to beat on strikers. To be fair, most of the police were reasonable and just doing their job and controlling angry strikers can be challenging. the though that they did not support union brothers and sisters disturbed me at the time.. Police unions were always a different breed and the idea that they played by the same rules as other unions was ridiculous. I led a successful union organizing campaign years ago with the Daytona Beach, Florida police department and realized just how different they were. unions will always try to get the upper hand when dealing with police response times during chaotic strikes. Now strike security plans are more important than ever. Message me on LI or email me at rtorres@pslabor.com for more info.
